Four minutes to explain what a difference a bypass makes to a rural centre like Newtown – using live resources centred around a package – ‎and how do you get across to hundreds of thousands of people, who might not have any idea of the place you’re talking about, what a difference that bypass makes to rural Wales?
Well, Dragon UAV’s aerial footage really helped explain not just the terrain and the location but just how challenging the construction work was. The Duke of Wellington always used to tell his soldiers – take the high ground. The same applies to TV: Dragon UAV’s footage – and their help on a day of tight turn-arounds – was invaluable – they’re part of a vanguard of drone cameras that are now becoming a vital dimension of TV storytelling….

Once again, Stuart and Dragon UAV have provided a timely and very professional response to a request for some specific filming and video footage to be shot and edited in time for a pitch to be made to Severn Trent Water to enable the Going Green For A Living (Open Newtown) team to ask for some funding to enhance an existing ‘wetland woodland’.

The professional short video enabled the ‘pitchers’ to walk away with £19,000 in additional funding for the ‘Open Newtown’ project.

Open Newtown is committed to spending as much as it can locally and it’s fantastic to be able to tap in to local resources and skills such as Dragon UAV.

“Thank you so much for your recent visit. It was fascinating to watch you at work with the drone and, as you know, we couldn’t resist taking photos of you taking aerial shots of our house and garden!

We were pleasantly surprised at how quick and quiet the whole operation was.
The photos themselves are spectacular. Not only because they were taken from a variety of perspectives, but also because you managed to make everything so light and colourful despite it being rather overcast at the time. The photos were sharp and well defined, and very flattering to our property. Thank you again for an excellent service.”

“Dragon UAV’s understanding of our requirements were tantamount to a successful survey and we got exactly the right result that we required.

“Welsh Property Services are absolutely delighted with the aerial shots we have received from Dragon UAV. They have without doubt enhanced our sales details and the property owners are also thrilled. The service was prompt and thorough, extremely good value and we can highly recommend using Stu at Dragon UAV.”

“The aerial images and video taken by Stu and the team at ‘Dragon UAV Specialist Media’ have been a great asset when telling the story of our technology on the Active Buildings, as they capture the integrated solar roofs beautifully. It’s great to have such high-quality imagery to supplement future magazine articles and award submissions.”

“Wales News Service is a press agency that provides media to Britain and around the world. We contacted Stuart at Dragon UAV with an urgent requirement for shots on a breaking news story.

Dragon UAV were able to deploy quickly, and obtain excellent quality photos and video footage which was used by several national news outlets. The images were provided quickly and we found Stu and Dragon UAV to be prompt, professional and offered great service.

We would not hesitate in using Dragon UAV again for aerial work, and very much recommend them to anyone needing quality aerial photography or videography”.
